Title: Has anyone used the hs strut squealing hen call??
Post by: Songdog2012 on May 02, 2014, 12:31:13 PM
Hey fellas, i have never been one to buy into all the gimmics surrounding turkey hunting, angood slate call and maybe a couple different mouth calls. But i was at wallyworld the other day and picked one of these calls up on clearance for 2 bucks! I figured what the heck, it cant hurt to have something different in the vest right?

Has anyone ever used them good or bad id like to hear about it, i raise turkeys at my home and have actually heard the "squealing" sound they make when the gobbler mounts them but i only have one gobbler for breeding so ive never got to see if it has any effect on another gobbler. Seems possible but who knows.

Guess why it was 2 bucks. You should have waited for your change.

Dirtnap, that is exactly what i was thinking last night while i was messing around with it. It soumds great as a distressed critter sound lol!!!

I wont be useing it this year for turkeys as i just filled my tag a few hours ago off of my trusty pot call. Not bad for 30 mins into the opening days hunt!!

I think mine went into the recycle bin. If I recall, I used it and scared the life out of a gobbler...Good thing, it was only two bucks. Great yard sale stuff!  :)

Thats funny i recently talked to a self proclaimed "turkey hunting fanatic". An older gentlemen. He tried telling me that the squealing hen is  one of the best calls to use. I politely disagreed and he said hes been raising turkeys for years and every time a tom gets on one to breed the hens make that sound. Well i dont dispute that but i have never heard a hen make that sound  in the woods. Maybe it would work 5% of the time who knows.IMHO though, you could not pay me enough money to carry let alone use one while hunting. I would choose the cheapest worst sounding store bought call any day over a squealing hen. H.S. Strut has really been pushing some complete junk calls lately. Have you guys seen the cruncher deer call?lol.
